Not sure that i would classify it as quite prominent, when it is located in the 'Page Background' group at the end of the Design tab, but yes it does have a large button which is understandable as it is a group button with presets, which we dont have. In 2010, it was located in the Page Layout tab, which is how i assume we'll also do it in Notebookbar. 2013: <a href="http://i1-news.softpedia-static.com/images/extra/WINDOWS3/large/MS%20Word/Word%202013%20ribbon%20bar.png">http://i1-news.softpedia-static.com/images/extra/WINDOWS3/large/MS%20Word/Word%202013%20ribbon%20bar.png</a> 2010: <a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MRLIhB075_E/UDs4h-XNAtI/AAAAAAAABiI/Q8c_CXuv1l8/s1600/Page+layout+Red.png">http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MRLIhB075_E/UDs4h-XNAtI/AAAAAAAABiI/Q8c_CXuv1l8/s1600/Page+layout+Red.png</a> > Any reason to hide it in a dialog, instead of having it in the menu / > sidebar / toolbar? :-) Wouldnt call it hidden when its suggested to move it from a new dialog to an existing one which contains all page-level properties, especially when the page properties dialog has a more prominent position in the menu, it is available in the context menu, and has its own dedicated deck/tab in the sidebar. :D >From a different view, how would a user modify the watermark properties of a page-style that hasnt been applied from the styles & formatting deck of the sidebar if its not available in the page style dialog? The main point is that all relevant properties should be accessible from a single dialog, so users dont have to open multiple dialogs to access related features, like unfortunately we have to for object properties (<a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - All-in-one Textbox/Shape/Object properties dialog" href="show_bug.cgi?id=96355">bug 96355</a>). Similar to MS Word, it groups watermark along with page color and page borders, which are available in the page dialog. If the separate UNO command and dialog are still wanted, it is fine to include the features in both places, but it wouldnt be listed in the Format menu as it would be redundant. Watermark should also go in the sidebar's Page deck/tab (<a class="bz_bug_link bz_status_NEW " title="NEW - Watermark content panel for Page deck of sidebar" href="show_bug.cgi?id=108651">bug 108651</a>). The feature isnt used enough to go into the standard toolbars.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
